The look on the king's face made Elizabeth hold her breath as she wasn't sure of what the king must be thinking. Irrespective of this fact,it was already too late to regret her words and all she could now do was pray she hasn't ended her rein as king.
After what felt like eternity,king Arthur stoop up from his pouch showing no emotion,nor was he yet to respond to what Elizabeth had said.
He turned to leave but Elizabeth wasn't ready to end the conversation just yet "Am pregnant!" She shouted at the top of her voice,which only her and the king could her as the room was sound proof.
"I heard you the first time" king Arthur narrowed his eyes to see Elizabeth who was shaken by how bold she had become to raise her voice at the king "I will see you tomorrow when we leave for Austro" and then left.
Elizabeth felt a hole in her chest,what kind of respond was that? Elizabeth expected king Arthur to shower her with affection and love but he just turned cold instantly. She fell on her bed, wishing she wasn't left with the option of informing the king about her pregnancy, would he treat me any less?
Elizabeth remained still and numb on her bed until she fell asleep. When morning arrived, king Derick had already set up breakfast for king Arthur and his wives inorder to spare himself some more time with the royal family but the king, king Arthur sent a messager to inform him that they would be leaving that very morning without having breakfast.
"But it's about 5hours journey,it won't be advisable to embark on a journey with an empty stomach"king Derick knew this would be a rare chance for him and the king to discuss because the king hardly honour his invitation as he was busy with all other things concerning the kingdom.
"The king insist on leaving but will send an Invitation to the palace where you can have a meeting with him." The servant bowed and left immediately.
It took a while for the carriage to be arranged, Queen Anna was given alot of gifts and magic protection by the Queen Victoria mother and twin sister. Everyone sent their blessings to her as she board the carriage,followed by Queen Elizabeth inti her own carriage and lastly it was the turn of queen Victoria.
Victoria turned around to face her mother and sister who was behind her,she didn't look up to their eyes but rather allowed her hers to look at their foot. Princess Christiania walked towards her and lifted her face up to meet her eyes,and tears began gathering her eyes as Christiania lean forward to hug her.
This was the first time since Queen Victoria left her parents to live with her husband the king,that they saw her cry. The two sisters wispher something into their ears, before leaving each other embrace. Victoria then took a step towards her mother and the stretched her hands open as if to collect something,before bowing into her hands. Her mother slightly did the same while her father just watched without responding.
Finally, Victoria turned back to enter her carriage. The carriage began to move and little by little they left the palace and was helding out of the kingdom LYDIA and towards the kingdom of AUSTRO.
On their way going, Elizabeth kept her mind on the many strangers that had being coming to her. First it was Natasha,who claimed to be her guardian,and then the high priestess who told her that she would give birth to a son and won't b able to protect him among all other things,and the the stranger who was said to be monitoring her at the palace garden.
Who would go through those many stress that snick pass the palace soldier just to monitor her,even if the person was a shape shifter it wasn't still easy to snick pass the palace guard. As if that was not enough,the handsome stranger on the mask who offered to dance with her. Why were this many new things happening to her?
Elizabeth felt the need to find out exactly what was going on and why were these people coming to her. She decided to call on Natasha,the spirit who claimed to be her guardian angel,but she would have to wait till she reached the palace.
But something in her told her it has to do with her unborn son. Who really was this child and why were bad things and suspicious things surrounding her just because of her one unborn child. Could it be a conicidence that the king's degree had something to do with her son?was that the reason for his reaction last night?
The journey back home,seen forever as Elizabeth couldn't wait till she returns. There and then will she find answers.
